White
A blue denim jacket will look great with a snow-white chiffon skirt. In general, with such a shade of bottom, you can safely choose any color for the top - black, yellow, pink, red, etc. Those who want to end up with a gentle romantic look should take a closer look at the pastel range of shades: pale pink, lavender, beige, light blue, light green, etc. If you want to attract the attention of others, then choose a bright, perhaps even acidic shade of the top: lemon yellow, acid green, scarlet, rich blue or fuchsia.
Blue
This color looks most harmonious with white, black, beige and pale pink, so you can choose a blouse, top, T-shirt, blouse or jumper in these tones. The bag can be gray, black, white, beige.
Yellow
This color has been in demand for several seasons now, so a yellow flowing skirt is no exception; it can be worn with a black fitted T-shirt, a gray or white tank top, a blue blouse or a beige-yellow pullover.
Green
A white, green, black, beige, brown or burgundy top will match the green shade of the bottom of the clothing. For example, a burgundy pullover, a white blouse, a checkered shirt, a black top or a blue denim jacket will look stylish. By the way, a black leather jacket or a fashionable bomber jacket will also fit perfectly here.
Brown
The brown palette is best complemented by accompanying white, beige, and black colors. A light brown shade will look harmonious with a beige blouse, and a rich dark chocolate shade will look great with a white top or shirt.
Red
You can pair a red maxi skirt with a black and white striped blouse. A black blouse, white top, blue denim shirt, white vest worn over a black T-shirt will also look great.
Pink

And for a bright look, a dark purple jacket, an orange blouse, a gold belt and a beige bag with gold elements are suitable.
Blue

Flowered
In general, floral clothes are incredibly popular among the fair sex, and not in vain, because a floral print can make an image more feminine and sophisticated. You can combine such skirts with blouses or tops, the tone of which echoes at least one of the shades of the background of the skirt or its ornament - in this case, the shade of flowers.
Fashionable taboos: with which skirt should you not wear sweaters?
It is impossible with those models that have ceased to be fashionable in 2020. Long skirts (floor-length and to the heels) have become a trend. They should not be worn with warm knitted sweaters. The image will look bad. Today, midi-length styles are in fashion - pleated, trapeze, linen style, made of silk, satin materials.
Beautiful combination of a white sweater with lowered sleeves
You should not wear a jacket with a bottom that has an asymmetrical hem—longer at the back. However, the jacket looks great with a midi with a sloped skirt to the side. She has a lingerie style. This means it goes well with a classic sweater. Otherwise, everything depends on the length of the top and hem:
- Low-waisted skirts should not be worn with short sweaters, so that the navel or strip of bare belly is visible. To match your look, you need to choose a shirt or wear an elongated tunic, a light sweater, or a turtleneck underneath.
- Today it is not fashionable to wear maxi pleated skirts with long jumpers. Also, images in combination with a short bottom and boots-stockings have gone out of trend. Transparent skirts made of lace and chiffon look better with a tunic jacket just above the knee. Complete your outfit with fashionable boots for 2021 if you are tall. If not, this season’s trendy boots.
What if you tuck in your sweater?
Get a modern look. But, under no circumstances choose a low-waisted skirt, especially one made from thick materials. Low-rise denim, knit, and wool styles shorten the legs, making the torso longer when tucked into a sweater. The main condition is a high waist bottom. It will help make the girl visually slimmer.
